How far can you jump?

Yes, I am a cocky 17 year old.

I just jumped 5.72m last week at track, I figure it is decent, and a step up from the 5.21m I jumped last year.

How old are you and how far can you jump?

That is all.

8.42

Broad Jump?

8.8. It was recoreded last year at my High School's football Combine.

Here is a link if you want to see the numbers.

I haven't done long jumping in years. But on a side note, the last time I measured my vertical jump was about 38 inches.

I don't want to sound boastful, but training for a good vertical jump isn't has difficult as people claim. You need the correct training methods and you will achieve your goal a lot quicker. I developed most of my height from training in Wushu and maintain it via Olympic styled Weight Lifting. I found that plyometrics didn't really do much for my type of schedule so I omitted them for about two years but they work very well for other people.

I just do my normal weight lifting, especially with leg lifts like squats. Thats probably why I had such a good broad jump at the time. And the day I did the jump, I was nautious and was feeling like I was about to pass out..:lol:. I can't even imagine what my number would've been if I was feeling better..I already got an 8.8 that day feeing awful.

By the way, we really didn't prepare for the broad or vertical jump. And I'm 5'5'' if you're wondering what my height is (check out my link for other #s)
